Moline Housing Authority - MHA

Moline Housing Authority - MHA Moline Housing Authority (MHA) is a public housing authority in Moline, Illinois MHA was created in 1940 to assist low-income residents.

In 1941 the first residents began moving into the 184 units located at Spring Brook Courts. They consisted of a mix of low-income individuals and military personnel and their families. In 1971 MHA could build Spring Valley for housing elderly. As HUD loosened rules regarding elderly housing to include singles, MHA found that they could serve more individuals by also adding Hillside Heights in 1971

to their holdings. The three developments sit on a combined total of more than 40 acres of land. MHA currently serves a multi-ethnic population.
